Instructions
Give your participants a few minutes to imagine what kind of movie would be made about their life, and who would be cast as them. Ask each person to give their name and share their movie fantasy. Would their life be a drama with Meryl Streep as the lead? Or more like a Jim Carrey comedy?
As a variation, you could modify this game by asking participants to share the kind of movie they’d like their life to be. Or, even better, which actor would they choose to play them.
Debriefing
No debriefing is necessary unless the exercise involves your topic in some way.
